Marty is also survived by the love of his of 32 nieces and nephews, along with 6 great nieces and one that's on the way. He was known to them as "Unkie Skunkie", Unkie or Uncle Marty. He is also survived by his best friends Mike McCarthy and Tom Delmarter, plus the many close, dear friends from Binghamton NY, and Jupiter FL. His loyal companion, his golden retriever Clover.

Marty graduated from Binghamton North High School and attended Palm Beach Junior College in Boca Raton before returning back to Binghamton to work in the family business of Dick's Sporting Goods. Marty worked for Dick's for over 25 years before leaving the company to pursue his own businesses; Northeastern Water Conditioning (Culligan) in Taylor, PA and Atlantic Coast Water Conditioning (Kinetico) in Stuart, FL.

Marty was a member of Vestal Hills CC, Genegantslet Golf Club, Binghamton CC and Jonathan's Landing Golf Club since 2003. His love for the NY Yankees brought him to test his ability at several Yankee Fantasy camps in Florida and Arizona. He played with legends - Don Larson, Frank Howard, Mickey Rivers, Ron Guidry and becoming great friends and fishing buddies with Joe Girardi and his daughter Lena. His other love of sports teams included the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame, Syracuse Orange, the Boston Celtics, the NY Giants and the Masters Golf tournament. His absolute love of the water created a fisherman like no other - he enjoyed fishing, taking many young ones on "Pinstripes 2" and would often be given the title of "Captain Marty".

Marty will be remembered as a kind, gentle soul, who would do anything for anyone. He was surrounded by his family, played like a champion and left us peacefully too soon - special thanks and love go out to Nancy, Rick, Siobhan, Cal, Corinne, TJ and Matthew for taking such good care of him and being our team leaders on "Team Marty".

My deepest condolences to your family. I first met Marty and His brother Eddie at the Court Street store so many years ago. On Friday I would bring in club money from co-workers at Columbia Gas for a due bill. Later I played golf with Marty on weekends at Genegantslet Golf Club. He was a fierce competitor but a great golf buddy. So very sad to hear of his passing.

As a friend of Kims growing up I always thought Marty was so much younger and just a cute little kid. As an adult 2 other good friends and I were staying with Kim in Florida and Marty took us out in his boat. He was a consummate captain and added a lot to our fun girls day out on the water. I always enjoyed talking to Marty. He will be missed.
